I do keep hearing that the Soviets were not Russian by birth, however, it was Russia proper, Moscow where the Soviet headquarters were. Russia did maintain the Soviet seat at the UN when the Soviet Union collapsed.
Just as the Clintons gave the world the perception they represented America at large, and sadly the majority of Americans always appeared to poll in their favor.
Putin is no czar, even though he and others might try and portray him as such. Further Putin reigns more like a Soviet than a czar.
You bring up the Russian Alaska sale. Wasn't it considered a "folly" that our government agreed to buy that vast piece of wilderness, and who benefits most this day with our liberal thinking left preventing US from spot drilling. Sure is not the American people, and I am not buying these leftists are really concerned about the caribou.

The capital of Russia before bolshevick Civil war was SaintPetersburg not Moscow. Moscow' Kremlin was the headquater of Partriarch. Bolshevicks evicted Partriarch and took his place.
They did as occupiers.
